I would try a little lidocaine on a q tip. You can get it over counter now. I just don't understand why down into the neck though. Unless it's referred pain, because that is what itch really is.
Too much of a klutz to dare sticking something that long is in there. My luck, I'd sneeze, see the needle come out the other ear, and discover how many cobwebs really are in my head. lolHi Depleted...Have you ever had your inner ear washed right down to the canal...The reason i say this is because if you have a bacteria inside , the ear drops etc whatever you are using or have used may still not be clearing the debris away so it remains alive...My sister use to be a great knitter, and every now and then i would catch her guiding that long knitting needle into her ear to relieve the itch lol, please note i am not suggesting you go and get a knitting needle...xox...
For every response I considered, (and I thought this was funny), I had to skip it because it's a little to daring.Itchy ear? Take away your husbands feather.
Hm. Do you think anbesol (benoscaine) would work?I would try a little lidocaine on a q tip. You can get it over counter now. I just don't understand why down into the neck though. Unless it's referred pain, because that is what itch really is.

My guess, (I am not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV), is the neck itches, because the real itch is behind the ear drum and it's slid into a sinus cavity. But, if it's an infection, something bigger should have happened by now, or it should have gone away.
The Joseph believes a boatload of quackery type information posing as "health information," has no idea what my diet is, believes he is the world's leading authority on diet, has proven often enough he has no idea what others do or think, and thinks he can diagnose strangers online.
As far as I'm concerned, that shows the ignorance he blames on everyone else.
(Since we're talking third-person rather than actually talking to each other.)
I've solved an infected tooth that made my tongue start to lose feeling on the left side with nano particle colloidal silver. If there is an infection inside and antibiotics haven't helped the silver might. It kills many antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria as well as fungus. Drink one ounce three times a day for three days and you can put a few drops in the ear as well. If it hasn't helped by then it probably won't. Best brand to buy is Sovereign Silver. That brand used as stated will not cause Argyria. I used a similar brand at three ounces a day for ten days with the only effect being the healing of my tooth.
For me it is sad you do not care for natural health remedies, and that is your choice. Last month, i have seen my ENT, where i remembered to ask abt itchies there inside. Personally i thot its cause may be fungal, as i gathered from some previous readings, but i still asked and he said those are usually allergic. I happen to have discovered a local herbal medicine encyclopedia at my parents' house, and reviewing stuff. Stuff i never really grew up with, but now am finding to be helping a lot of locals who grew up with the plants and grasses around which God gave from the start. Who'd have thot that sugarcane was medicinal (well i never did), and cogon grass, hibiscus, roses etc.I'm not big on natural health stuff. I'd rather take an aspirin for a headache then get into compresses and willow bark.
That said, to explain how desperate I am. I've tried everything for my itchy ear -- H2O2, anti-fungal creams, prescriptions, withc hazel, vinegar, not scratching it, not using Q-tips for two months. As it stands now, doctors keep repeating what didn't work before.
It's been itching on and off, (more on, than off) for 15 years now. And it's not just the ear. The itch goes halfway down my neck quite often. As it stands now, I'm seriously considering having the nerves for my ear removed. No feeling, no itch. It wakes me up in the middle of the night. I miss a lot of TV shows and conversation because wiggling your finger that hard on your ear, (the itch is too deep to scratch) stops me from hearing out of that ear.
Any ideas? And, please, still not going to buy something or do something because there is an ad-site giving "sound-advice" to sell their real product. (If you're going to give me a link, make sure the link isn't just a very long advertisement to sell something.)
You do know that if you ingest too much, there's a risk of your skin turning blue? I would never take an oz. of that.
